A few points to note about this data: Renewable energy here is the sum of hydropower, wind, solar, geothermal, modern biomass and wave and tidal energy. Traditional biomass – the burning of charcoal, crop waste, and other organic matter – is not included. This can be an important energy source in lower-income settings.
An added benefit is that residential energy storage systems that have previously undergone the cell level test under UL 9540A can often use that test data for the UL 9540B cell test. A key difference between the UL 9540A and UL 9540B is that UL 9540B includes the purposeful ignition of vented gases during a thermal runaway propagation event.
